Scotty McCreery To Appear on Fox & Friends Christmas Special

Platinum-selling superstar performs two tracks from his Gold-certified 2012 Christmas album.

As if celebrating Christmas with their families wasn’t enough, fans of Scotty McCreery now have a reason to tune their TV away from the A Christmas Story marathon and watch the FOX & Friends Christmas Special. The show will premiere on FOX on Christmas Eve (12/24) from 8-10PM and then re-air from 11PM to 1AM ET. On Christmas day the special will run from 2-4AM and from 2-4PM.

Scotty and his band performed spirited renditions of “Holly Jolly Christmas" and “Santa Claus Is Back In Town” for the Yuletide celebration. Both songs appear on his Gold-certified 2012 Christmas album Christmas With Scotty.

The singer recently scored his second-consecutive Top 10 hit with “Feelin’ It,” a single from his well-received sophomore album See You Tonight. The album debuted at #1 on the Billboard Top Country Albums chart when released in 2013. The title track is also a Top 10 hit, in addition to being a Platinum-certified track, was one of three tracks McCreery recently had certified by the RIAA as Platinum singles.

    Matt, the song is Santa Claus Is Back In Town. Scotty is by far the best country singer on earth.

    I look forward to watching this special. We love Scotty. He truly is a great country singer and deserves the very best. He sings from his heart and puts everything in to each one of his songs. Christmas in Heaven is one of my favorites.

    Great article, Matt!! Thank you so much. I have been a "McCreerian" from that first line of "Baby Lock Them Doors" that Scotty sang for his AI audition. What an amazing voice! His mellow baritone is perfect for Christmas music and his Christmas CD is one of the best ever put out. So proud of Scotty for sticking to his faith and love of family and community. Just an amazing young man. (And I agree with Sharon about "Jingle Bells"....WOW!!)

    Thanks, Matt, for the shout-out about Scotty's television appearance on Fox and Friends on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. Scotty and his band are awesome. Haven't seen them on TV for a while so I am very excited to watch this Christmas special!! Scotty can really rock the Christmas songs. His voice is one of the best I have ever heard!!

    Thanks for the nice article, Matt!! I am so happy that Scotty will be on the Fox Christmas Show--will make Christmas Eve and Christmas Day even more special! Wish he were doing more than just two songs! I just love Scotty's Christmas album---all the songs are so good from his gorgeous, sincere versions of "Oh Holy Night" and "Mary, Did You Know?" to the beautiful, thought-provoking "Christmas in Heaven" to the delightful "Holly Jolly Christmas" to the HOT "Santa Claus is Back in Town!!" Another one that I adore is his sophisticated, elegant "The Christmas Song"---shows off Scotty's luscious voice--umm-ummm! And my favorite---his "Jingle Bells!!" Who ever thought that "Jingle Bells" could be sexy, but Scotty McCreery's version is!! :)
